Am I covered by the University of Alberta's health and dental plan?

If you are a full-time or part-time undergraduate student taking a minimum of 3 credits in the Fall or Winter Term, you are automatically covered by the Students’ Union Health & Dental Plan. This coverage includes health, dental, vision, and travel benefits, as well as tuition insurance.

If you wish to opt out of this coverage and avoid paying the fee, visit studentcare.ca during the change-of-coverage period. Note that you must opt out annually if you do not want coverage.

For more information, including how to add family members to your coverage, please visit studentcare.ca or contact the SU Member Services Centre.
